If you want to know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders.
Every thought, every decision Nox made was with Sophia in mind. When she wasn’t near, it was all he could do not to hunt her down. She was at her weekly book chat with his mother discussing some new romance he had no idea how she found the time to read.
After their first night together, the first time he took her, he’d been insatiable. When they weren’t working or fueling up on energy, he’d had her pinned to the bed. Or wall. The counter twice while she was cooking for him. Damn was that a fucking turn-on he’d never expected.
The woman was a seductive siren with her innocence. The cute dresses she always wore. She was girly to the core, and he couldn’t be happier with it. Seeing his grease-stained hands on her perfect porcelain skin never failed to light his fire.
“Nox, you paying attention?” Loch bitched at him.
They were supposed to be watching an NHRA race, but he kept zoning out.
“Yeah,” he grumbled taking another sip of his beer.
For the first time in his life, the quarter-mile just didn’t interest him. The thought of fucking Soph on the hood of his car at the track, however, fueled yet another fantasy.
“Dude, you’re pussy-whipped.” Loch laughed.
With any other man, he’d clean their clock for even thinking of his woman like that; fortunately, he knew Loch was busting his balls.
Besides, it was completely true. She had him wrapped around her tiny little finger, and he wouldn’t change a damn thing about it.
Checking his watch again, he still had another hour before he had to pick her up. He was almost annoyed with his mom for demanding her time. She was his. Plain and simple. He didn’t want to share her with anyone.
His mother was a force to be reckoned with, and he knew that if he ever wanted to live in peace with his girl, he’d have to concede to some things with the older woman.
Like sharing.
“You could just knock her up, and Ma wouldn’t try stealing her from you anymore. She’d take the baby,” Loch suggested, laughing.
It wasn’t a bad idea.
“You’re thinking about it.” His brother laughed harder. “You can’t be that obsessed with the girl.”
“You’ll find out, Loch. You find that girl that steals your breath with just a look, and you won’t be laughing no more.”
A faraway look entered his brother’s eyes, making Nox wonder if he’d already found her.
“You’ve found her, haven’t you?”
Loch shrugged.
“Tell me about her.” Nox pushed.
“Can’t.” Loch took a long chug of his beer.
“Why the hell not?” he demanded.
“She’s underage. Don’t matter who she is. Can’t touch her.”
Nox was speechless as he watched his youngest brother’s heartache. Loch was a different breed of man compared to him and Levi. He was more sensitive, empathetic. He understood far more than either he or Levi ever could.
Knowing Loch had a girl out there, and one that he couldn’t act on made him ache for the younger man. The hurt he must feel not having her at his side. Well, call him selfish, but it made Nox want to have Soph in his arms that much more.
Following his brother to the kitchen, he clapped a hand on his shoulder, asking him, “Have you spoken to her?”
“Not once.”
“Damn.”
